Spectacular solar eclipse experience in Dallas! #EclipseSolar2024

I am a #LSST Scialog Fellow! So excited to be selected for this exciting program together with many inspiring fellow astronomers 🤩

Weather is so good today, we had to have our class outside in the Green! #dartmouth #summer

It was an amazing conference! Thanks the organizers for amazing experience and exciting science 🤩 #RareGems2024

Eid mubarak! İyi bayramlar ❤️ #bayram

Happy new academic year! I am teaching an intro to astronomy course this term, and have amazing students ❤️ I had a meeting with my group, many great results are on the horizon 🥳 I finished this busy week with a brunch with my group. Here’s to many more memories and successes!

📢Check out our two papers on arXiv: 1) arxiv.org/abs/2409.16345: the discovery of three quenched, faint dwarf galaxies, which are new probes of reionization and internal feedback 🎉; 2) arxiv.org/abs/2409.17437: A census of dwarf satellites around LMC-mass host NGC2403 🤩

I am happy to announce the conference Galactic Frontiers II: Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Volume and Beyond, taking place at Dartmouth 🌲 from June 23-25, 2025.  For more information and registration, please see our website: sites.dartmouth.edu/galactic-front…

RCSA will make 21 separate awards to support the research of 20 scientists from colleges, universities, and research institutions in the U.S. & Canada in Year 1 of #Scialog: Early Science with the LSST. Heising-Simons Foundation bit.ly/4hYB2wA

So excited to be selected for this impactful award, and looking forward to collaborating with amazing Nora Shipp and Charlotte Christensen 🥳

Today is the last day of classes at Dartmouth 🌲 for winter term. We had so much fun this term (first photo is to show how much fun we had while learning physics), now we are a little sad that the class is over (second photo)!

Some discoveries are so rare, they change the way we see the universe. While working on her PhD, Dr. Burcin Mutlu-Pakdil discovered a rare, unexplained galaxy—now known as Burçin’s Galaxy. Its structure is so unique that it challenges existing theories of galaxy formation and remains one

I am honored to be featured by Museum of Science 🤩

What impact can an early love of science make? For Dr. Burcin Mutlu-Pakdil, following her curiosity around physics led her to a career in astrophysics, where she pushes the boundaries of what we know about the universe. 🌌 This project is funded by Lyda Hill Philanthropies.

I am happy to announce that amazing grad student Kai Herron in my research group is one of the NSF GRFP awardees 🥳 Go Science! Dartmouth 🌲

We are excited to host Galactic Frontiers II conference at Dartmouth 🌲 next week, bringing experts on dwarf galaxies! It is a lucky coincidence that the first day of the conference overlaps with the #RubinFirstLook Watch parties 🎉 It will be a week of great #science!
